Favorite way of Transportation

[christopher]

Whats your favorite transportation at WDW. Mine is without a doubt the monorail. I'm not at Disney until I get on it.

Even though we never stay on a monorail resort, we always make sure to ride it at least once.....if nothing else, it's a fast way to Epcot.

I love taking the monorail. Everytime I ride it I get flashbacks of being a little kid at WDW.

Monorails are expensive toys.

While I think the monorail is just wonderful and I really enjoy riding it, the buses are the best form of transportation at WDW. Since WDW has its own government, I can see the day when they limit or ban private cars on certain routes so the buses can have exclusive routes. The monorail is cool but it just can't handle the volume of guests that the buses can transport with ease. Also the monorail pollutes more per passenger mile because of the massive amount of electricity that it uses. In short, the monorail is a very nice toy as are the boats.

Nothing can compare to the Monorail......

The boats come close, but nothing is better than the Highway in the Sky.

Monorail.

yeh we have never stayed at a Monorail resort but we always take it to epcot as wel and on the way back from magic kingdom.

The monorail por favor. We always, always find some excuse to ride the monorail at least once when we're there. It just wouldn't be complete without it.

personal car is the only way to go

The Monorail is my favorite mode of transportation.

My wife and I always stay at a monorail resort when we go to the World...you can't beat it for convienience.

NOW...having said that...

If you have never done it before, I think that everyone should try the BOAT RIDE from Disney/MGM to The International Gateway at EPCOT at least once.

It is such a nice, cool relaxing ride PLUS you get great views of the Swan/Dolphin, Yacht and Beach Club and Disneys Boardwalk Resorts.

The Boat Captains are always friendly and it's air-conditioned and a nice way to get off of your feet for a while.

The monorail is the best part of Disney. Everytime I go there I have to ride it. The whole monorail speil is the best I love hearing it. It is my favorite ride in all of Disney.

In April we got to ride in the front with the monorail driver!! It was awesome especially at night. Definately the monorail but ferry boat is my second favorite way especially between Epcot and MGM!!

 

[craziebabie1]

The Monorail:sohappy: :sohappy:

Walking!


No, just kidding. Monorail.

And I'll second the boat ride from MGM to Epcot, very nice.

 

[Wilson]

Actually, now that I look at it, I believe I'm thirding* the boat ride, but, whatever.

* Thirding isn't a word, is it? Maybe. I don't know.

 

[Tramp]

The monorail is fun but too often ya have to cram into a packed car and can't enjoy the ride...ya may as well be on a NY subway.

The Ferry provides a very slow and deliberate anticipation as you approach the Magic Kingdom and Cindy's Castle looms in the distance...that's a cool feeling...and it can be romantic as the Ferry pulls away from the dock late at night and the Castle grows ever so smaller...kinda like slow torture if you're leaving the Kingdom for the last time.

...for all the other parks, gimme my car anyday.

 

[Invero]

Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes the bus... LOL

And umm... what's with the "Fairy" Boat? Does Tinkerbell come out and guide them? LOL j/k I do have to say, at night... I'd rather take the Ferry or Cruiser than the Monorail. It's so nice and pretty, and very peaceful and relaxing...

 

[Herbie53]

I love the monorail. Like some other people said, it's not a trip to Disneyworld without a ride on the monorail, but I have to agree with Tramp about its downside. It can get crowded, and the walk up the ramp seems to take forever after a long day at the parks.

I also love the boat ride from Dixie Landings (Sorry, Riverside) to the Marketplace. Buses to the marketplace are hard to catch, and parking there is horrible, so the boat is definitely the best way to get to the marketplace.

So shoot me. I like the efficiency and convenience of the busses. Plus I've never actually stayed at a monorail resort...:lol:
